One mentioned going to court for additional child support when her boys hit their teens—because her ex was pleading poverty despite taking his new girlfriend to Hawaii on vacation. In his list of assets, he had a classic car he’d painstakingly restored, listed at its blue book rather than actual value. The judge looked at my friend and asked her, “Mrs. H, would you buy that car from him for $500?” She replied, “You bet I would!”—and her brain trust of an ex hollered out, “It’s worth a LOT more than that!” Let us say that His Honor was less than impressed with him.

My X idiot pulled a couple of those. His biggest mistake was telling the judge "I'm not paying that bitch one thin dime and you can't fucking make me". Yeah...that one ended up throwing the entire settlement to my favor. Ended up costing him a bundle. And every other time he took me to court he got fkd too because he wouldn't listen to his lawyer. Dum Fuk. Turns out that was the whole reason he divorced me too...he couldn't handle being married to a woman who was more intelligent than him. His current wife is dumb as the proverbial rock. Then there was my hubs who would brag to people "my wife is smart as shit...and that's sexy as hell".

I see Lori is bashing Beth Moore again. Jealous, jealous, jealous.

I didn't take Beth's tweet to mean to not submit to your husband. I felt the intent was to tell young women to be careful if a man has a fixation on submission. It's a BIG RED FLAG.   I'm pretty conservative (hubby is a pastor and doesn't ordain women, typical Baptist; yada, yada, yada) and have no problem with a man being a man and looking after his family or a wife following her husband. 

I will defer to my husband's wishes.  You know why? Because he isn't on an ego/power trip thinking he controls me.  He has no interest in telling me how to run my life or making "rules" for me. So, on the rare occasions he asks something of me, I have no problem honoring what he wants.  

Some men misuse the verse on wives submitting as a reason to abuse or control them.  So yea, if a man is fixated on submission or gets off controlling you...run!

Teenagers trick or treating.  I see lots of them every year with the sibling/ cousins etc.  I always give the teens candy even if they aren't actually begging. I figure If they're doing escort/chaperone duty they deserve something.

Some of the teens come in costume. The boys tend to show up in their sports letter jackets. We've lived here long enough to see the kids grow up from littles to being the chaperones.  It's really cool to watch the continuity of life as it flows along.

Here on Halloween the teens are out in full force, roaming around with friends, but 95% of them aren't candy begging.

Our neighborhood goes all out with decorating beginning in early October.  I've never thought of Halloween as a modern-day pagan/ satanic celebration. No one I know does. Obviously I must not be hanging out with a Lori-approved group of "Christian" people.  But ... as a non-Christian Catholic we do All Saints and All Souls ... and Halloween

ITA Long, lean and lanky never, ever tried a power trip/control thing on me. There were very few times he "put his foot down" and that was usually when I was being an asshole over something. There were also times I "put my foot down" too when he was being an asshole over something. However, for some reason, we never had a "power struggle". I think that's another reason why I don't want to get involved with anyone again. There seems to be too many men who get off on power trips and that would be a recipe for disaster with me. I'm quite capable of being the domineering, ball busting bitch but I'd rather not have to let her out to play.

Working with teens breaks my heart because so many of them are growing up too fast and are scared for their future. So I guess my take is give them the damn candy. And then give them extra. If they’re taking time to do something safe and fun I want to reward that. 
 

So many of the mom’s I talk to say that their ex would just work under the table so they can pay less in child support. They don’t give a fuck that their kid doesn’t have diapers or there’s less food on the table because of their actions. And then they demand access to the children they don’t even know how to feed.
 

The bar is in hell for so many fathers. I can’t tell you the amount of times a father had to bring a kid in for an assessment because mom is busy and they don’t have a damn clue about their kid’s mental health “my wife/ their mom would know more” is what I hear. One of the many reasons I broke up with my ex is because he couldn’t be bothered to wrap his niece’s present in a gift bag. His was in a rumpled paper sack while mine was beautifully put together. I barely knew this little girl and I took the time to put together a gift for her.  I made him take it out and put it in my gift.  Him being a low effort father flashed before my eyes and I knew I couldn’t spend the rest of my life with that man. Sorry went on a rant but I’ve been dealing with this topic lately.

Lori can’t understand why purity culture can be harmful and keeps repeating that it’s better than fornicating and that her own kids never suffered from purity culture.  Well I guess there is no problem then Lori.  This woman lives in a vacuum.  And that pic of her bedroom made me shiver it looked so cold.  So much for keepers at home making their homes warm and inviting.  I literally feel cold looking at it.
